I thought this was a fairer critic than most - giving credit to objective talent where its due even though he is not in the fanbase?
Not as bad as some.
People should just enjoy the artists they enjoy and shut the hell up about music they don’t like, period.
There are LOTS of bands, movies, and events that I could not care less about, even thinking (privately) that the people into them must have ingested lead as children, stuff people love that I can’t even process as ‘music’ or ‘art’, but I believe only a uncouth dolt deserving of ridicule says or writes about such naming names. I’m no fan of ‘rap’ music (I think they left the ‘C’ off of it), but until I have as many gold records as Snoop Dog, I’ll keep my criticisms to myself.
If someone enjoys it, it’s good music; if someone doesn’t they should STFU unless and until they have a similar level of success... critics are the most useless humans short of ‘Community Organizers’.
Fregards.
